you'll have much more luck with full-duplex audio in -current
(or when 4.3 is released).
also see ports/telephony/pjsua in -current.
I apologize to everyone for my first message as it seems stirred high
unintended emotions. I was merely interested in the technical
possibility to run
the Skype on the OpenBSD box. As of this moment I do not have even a
Linux emulator turned on as I have strong preference for BSD license and
keeping thing as simple as possible.
According to above message I could expect technical problems with the
full-duplex mode on 4.2. I was not aware of it.
I am familiar with the SIP technology and have strong preference to SIP
phones over Skype. As of now it seems that there are no
SIP phones either listed in packages and even ports for 4.2.
Another reason for being interested in the Skype is purely pragmatical.
It seems that SIP phones and in particularly Ekiga that I am the most
familiar with have poor support for Windows and OS X. As most of people
that I talk to (family and friends) run those operating systems it seems
to me logical that I try to accommodate them instead of asking all of
them to change the operating system.
